Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a contact element of a prober unit (a probe) for testing circuits of semiconductor chips on a semiconductor wafer in the manufacturing process of electronic devices including LSI. More particularly, the present invention relates to a probe assembly of a prober apparatus for use in a probing test. In the probing test, circuit terminals (pads) arranged on the semiconductor chips on a wafer are made to contact with vertical probes for collective measurement of electrical conductivity of the semiconductor chips.
  • Pads on each wafer chip have also increased in number, and have become more precisely arranged, whereby pad areas become smaller and pad pitches becomes narrower.
  • the pad pitch will become as narrow as 20 ⁇ m in the near future.
  • Chip size packaging becomes dominant in which a bear, non-packaged chip is mounted on a circuit board or other substrate.
  • characteristics and quality of the chips should be verified at the wafer level.
  • a contact element assembly is disposed between test equipment and pads on semiconductor chips.
  • the contact element assembly includes needle probes each having a portion which is elastically deformable due to external force.
  • a printed circuit board called probe card is used for electrically connecting the contact element assembly and test circuits on the semiconductor chips.
  • probes for inspecting one or several chips tip portions of probes for contacting the semiconductor chip pads are narrow-pitched whereas base portion of the probes connected to a probe card are wide-pitched since the probes are arranged to radiate out.
  • the probes can be connected, e.g., soldered to circuit terminals of the probe card, which causes few wiring problems.
  • circuit wiring terminals should be arranged to correspond to the pitch of the probe arrangement, i.e., the pitch of the pads to be inspected. As a result, the probe arrangement should be closely wired.
  • the wiring substrate must be a multi-layer substrate having the wiring arranged densely at the periphery of the probe terminals.
  • about 128 to 160 wirings per signal layer is appropriate.
  • a circuit tester with about 1000 pins requires over 20 layers including a power supply layer, having thickness of 4.8 to 6.5 mm, and diameter of about 350 mm.
  • FIG. 8 An exemplary wiring pattern near the probe terminals is shown in FIG. 8 .
  • a probe terminal 32 - 1 e.g., a terminal on the probe sheet
  • the conversion wiring board 30 is arranged at a ⁇ m pitch to correspond to the pad on the chip to be inspected.
  • the wiring is connected to a land 351 a of a via hole 351 for interlayer conduction via a pattern 34 - 1 on a first layer 37 - 1 of the conversion wiring board 30 .
  • the wiring is extended from the land 351 a via the via hole 351 , and via conductive patterns and via holes on a second layer 37 - 2 and above layers of the conversion wiring board 30 to a backside layer (i.e., the layer of inspection equipment side), which is a nth layer 37 - n on the conversion wiring board 30 .
  • wiring is extended from a probe terminal 32 - 2 to a land 352 a of a via hole 352 via a pattern 34 - 2 on the first layer 37 - 1 of the conversion wiring board 30 .
  • the pattern is developed from the land 352 a via the via hole 352 , and via conductors and via holes on the second layer 37 - 2 and above layers on the conversion wiring board 30 to the backside layer, which is the nth layer 37 - n on the conversion wiring board 30 .
  • lands of the via holes connected to each probe terminal need to be positioned near the probe terminal on the same layer.
  • a presently common pitch of via holes and lands is, however, about 0.5 mm, which is large about 10 times as compared with a pad pitch of a chip to be inspected.
  • the land arrangement cannot be within a probe region.
  • the land arrangement also include outside area of the probe region, then a multi-pinned structure is difficult to establish and collective testing of plural chips is prevented. Further, the lengths of the wirings from each of the probe terminals vary considerably to prevent impedance matching.
  • an object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive probe card which is applicable to narrow-pitched pad arrangements while addressing the problem of closely-arranged wirings near probe terminals.
  • the invention is, in a probe assembly which is fabricated by etching metallic foil adhering to a resin film to form a conductive pattern including probing function on the resin film, and stacking or parallel-arranging a plurality of the resin films with probing function, the probe assembly used for inspecting circuits on a semiconductor chip by making probe tips collectively contact electrode pads on the chip, characterized in that the probe assembly includes an electrical terminal which is connected to the probe via the conductive pattern and is made to contact with a connecting land of the circuit board at an opposite side in a first direction (Z direction of an XYZ orthogonal coordinate system) on the same plane as the probe.
  • the invention is characterized in that the probe assembly includes an electrical terminal which is connected to the probe via the conductive pattern and is made to contact with a connecting land of the circuit board at an opposite side in a first direction (Z direction) on the same plane as the probe, because output terminals of the probes protrude from different positions of the probe sheet, output positions of the electrical terminals on the conversion wiring board for input/output to/from the probe can be changed in the probe sheet in advance, the output positions can be determined independently of probe tip arrangement and wiring pattern from the probe terminals that conventional embodiments were dependent on.
  • each of the electrical terminals is formed on the resin film independently at a position in the second direction (X direction) such that when the resin films with probing function are stacked or parallel-arranged, the electrical terminals correspond to some or all of the connecting lands on the circuit board.
